Undeterred by jail time, 'The Naked Rambler' is back on the trail

Stephen Gough makes his way south through Peebles in the Scottish Borders, on Oct. 6, following his release the day before from Saughton Prison. The rambler has 18 convictions and has been in and out of prison since 2006 for offenses ranging from not wearing clothes in front of the sheriff, breach of the peace and contempt of court.

Stephen Gough, known as 'The Naked Rambler,' has spent more than six years in Scottish prisons for refusing to put his clothes on. He was released from prison Friday after serving his latest sentence for public nudity. He has twice traversed the island of Great Britain wearing only boots, socks, a backpack and sometimes a hat.
